Well I bit the bullet and got it for $550 with the ammo and his old school holster from the war.... Bill of sale and all the jazz.... Has a second clip too that he found for me... Great guy... It's a straight shooter to boot.... Spent 3 hours shooting the *censored* with him along with two clips.... One last hoorah for him.... Probably won't leave the house much.... Kinda more of an airloom imo because of what happened with it.... He has at least 7 confirmed kills with it and some possibles along with definite hits that surely resulted in death.... Fire fights in heavy cover close range..... It's was his baby and life support.... I promised him I'd take care of it and try to respect it as much as he did and it won't leave me til passed down to my son with it's history to go with it..... Kinda a tear jerker....
Now the agreement with my wife that she informed me of after getting home was I now can't go bear hunting for another week or make that $550 back....

A little pissed.... Had a bear hunt set for this evening with her Uncle and a buddy...... Figures....

Just posted a bunch of crap on CL so should only take a day or two after I scrap this car in the am I'll be halfway there!!!!
